I think I need to smell some pine trees!
I really think that in the midst of a change of life, it might just be good to go out and do something you like doing, and see if it still works to change your attitude! In my case it would be to go smell some pine trees, take a walk in a forest and just wonder what ever happened to the rest of the world! I think that is the reason for a Sabbath, no working, it seems that the problem has been around for thousands of years, human beings have been so obsessed with existing, making sure they leave some kind of significant mark on the world or just survive,that they have forgot to appreciate the world or it's beauty! We are always so apt to feel guilty for not having done something significant, that we punish ourselves, by doing too much of the mundane. If life is important, than we should stop and appreciate it! It is one of the reasons peak bagging got old, it is great to get to the top of the mountain, but often, the race to see how fast you go up, and come down, setting a record, kind of misses the point of seeing and experiencing the mountain. Exercise in it's self will clear the mind, but what you see, smell, touch, these reconnect you with your soul, refresh your spirit, make your mind think in new ways! So, when you start to get stale, when the only thing in your heart and your mind make you want to scream, stop, remember what makes you happy, and just do it! Whatever day you do a Sabbath, do it, don't feel guilty, don't count the productive things you could have done, just remember, it is not about work, if you exercise when you Sabbath, the exercise should not be (for your good), it is should be because it takes you where you want to be, it should ultimately relax and help re-create you, re-center yourself, to appreciate... God, the world, and the people around you! Here are some pictures to take your mind off of things that you see everyday!

Men's Fraternity! Session 14 What is a Reputation worth?
What is this doing on walking by faith in Christ for! And why so long for a post? Good questions, but it is after all my blog and I hope it has been missed! Just briefly, it is Men's Fraternity that has been part of the healing going on in me from the hard times. And this morning at 5:30 am, we sat down and reviewed what a good name is all about, how your reputation is sometimes the only thing of value you have left, and the only thing that will count is what people see you do over and over again, REPUTATION is the most important thing, and your name must stand for something, no matter what the cost, and when you feel like quitting, just remember that the only thing that builds your reputation is never quitting, doing the right things, not only is God watching, but others are to, and what they see in you. So check out this Video, and see what you can do when life deals you a bad hand!
